01
Step 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the beer, onion, brown sugar, olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, and hot sauce. Add the skirt steak and toss it around so it’s completely coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and pop it in the fridge to marinate for anywhere from 6 to 24 hours.

Step 2
When you’re ready to cook, heat up your grill to high and give the grates a quick brush with oil to keep the steak from sticking. Take the steak out of the marinade and let any extra drip off—then throw the leftover marinade away.

Step 3
Place the steak on the grill and cook it for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. You’re looking for a nice reddish-pink center, so if you have a meat thermometer, aim for around 130°F. Once it’s done, move the steak to a plate and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Why you’ll love it
This dish combines the rich, deep flavors of stout with the bold, smoky taste of grilled skirt steak. The glaze adds a perfect balance of sweetness and bitterness, making every bite exciting and satisfying. It’s a great choice for those who enjoy a hearty and flavorful meal.
How to serve
Serve the steak sliced thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness. Pair it with grilled vegetables, a fresh salad, or creamy mashed potatoes for a complete meal. A cold beer or a glass of red wine complements the robust flavors nicely.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or oven to avoid overcooking. Avoid freezing if possible, as the texture of the steak may change.
